Yes, all the leadfree solders are currently for consumer products. Military and aerospace industry haven't implemented leadfree yet. They are still study which to go! Maybe that time, we all can follow military std and having high reliability product

Now, they realized the problem of the current leadfree alloys. Is there any leadfree alloys finalized to use in future? Will it be a four elements alloys instead of current three elements alloys (eg SAC)?

The only way to resolve these issues is to bring back the good ol� lead and make the joints ductile instead of brittle for an affordable price. Thanks for the link Dave

Cool! Leave it to kids to think outside the box. But why does it have to be a box? (I love asking that in interviews). Anyway, I'm glad it's not the end of the world.... yet.
